Operation Christmas Child

Next Week November 6 GEMS will be going on a field trip to The Dollar Store to purchase gifts for Operation Christmas Child.  We are going to purchase items to add to our shoe boxes, so that a child overseas has the opportunity to receive a Christmas gift, but more importantly they will have a chance to learn more about Jesus. 


Permission slips are required for all the girls attending, and we ask if each child can bring a dollar so they can buy something special for each shoebox we send, we are hoping to have enough to fill 7-10 shoe boxes.  If you do not have a slip or have lost it please email Laura S. or the FBC office for a slip.

For the girls who do not have slips we will have a craft or movie at the church.

The following week we will be packing up the shoe boxes and adding notes and pictures to them, girls who couldn't go can bring items they purchased during the week. 

Now for something fun.  We have some songs we sing during our Music time at Gems so I wanted to post them so the girls and their parents can practice them together.
